Burlesque

I want to escape from the applause
And mask my pain
In the dimness of the dressing room

I hear applause, my anxiety grows
I start drinking again, thinking of you
I hold onto the spear of resentment

I can't recognize myself in the mirror while I cry
The lights will go out, the curtain opens

Take the memory away
I don't want it anymore
It embraces me and clouds my loneliness
Dealing a death blow to the heart

In the performance, I manage to disguise
This pain that is my obsession
And echoes in the ovation

The lights dazzle me and I search for you among the shadows
You were there with her, I want to die

Take the memory away
I don't want it anymore
It embraces me and clouds my loneliness
Dealing a death blow to the heart

As the curtain falls, I feel it's over
There won't be a night like this, it's my final goodbye

Take the memory away
I don't want it anymore
It embraces me and clouds my loneliness
Dealing a death blow to the heart
